Tasting Notes:
From the most renowned terroir in Cognac, comes a hand-craft, 100% estate-grown cognac - After maturation in individually selected casks of Limousin oak and acquiring a warm light brown hue, the fine and rare character of the cognac is revealed in the glass. A mélange of fruits, flowers and the heat of the terroir will be explored by the connoisseur.
The Chateau:
For 800 years and 28 generations, the Count’s family has earned a reputation of making great wines. Its private estate or “Domaine Privé” is situated between Bordeaux and Cognac with a unique terroir of Archiac, rich with minerals. The estate’s ancestral savoir-faire combined with carefully considered traditional production methods gives the cognac a distinct and bold character. This handcrafted cognac has for years been monopolized by the local population – finally making its debut in the United States as one of the premier cognacs.
